How is the Installer progressing to work with Apple Silicon (i.e. M1, M2,M3,M4 and now M5 CPU's) based PC's and Laptops? There are still questions (in one of the Telegram channels) on why devices are not working on Noble when it is available to download on the installer before soft bricking the device. Could Noble be removed from these devices installer until it is resolved?

@UBportsNews Is there any place to follow the mir2 and wayland progress? Because I see many related issues on the gitlab but most have not been updated in months. The background is that I tried postmarketOS with plasma mobile on a Shift 6mq recently and there are many native linux apps already that have a working mobile interface with wayland and it would really be useful for Ubuntu Touch if you could run them here too. So part 2 of the question is: Is there an effort for libertine to support those apps with full wayland and is there a place where we can follow this more closely? (Example: gnome-calls for SIP feels like a proper mobile app on postmarketOS but on Ubuntu Touch in libertine the UI isn't functional at all).

@UBportsNews ubfortunately still doesn't support gps, does it?

I’m especially curious about performance improvements and app compatibility, because lightweight games likereally benefit from smooth rendering, low latency, and stable touch input. Th ese kinds of optimizations can make Ubuntu Touch more attractive for casual gaming and indie developers as well.
